>>This notion that morality or civility is a predictor of success for a president is nonsense.
My point is that the sort of person who celebrates the "abuse claimants have the right to be believed" meme, is always going to vote for HRC over Trump. So the political effect of leaving that sort of message out there, is sort of like publishing your Goldman Sachs speeches. Better to express your message privately to the faithful and rely on "ignorance is bliss" for the rest of the voting rabble.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
